Historic signs, placed along the water’s edge of Fisherman’s Wharf by the Port of San Francisco, tell the Wharf’s history, give insight into today’s fishing community, and explain the need to protect the bay.

​Although the Bayside History Walk signs are presented numerically, they aren’t meant to be walked sequentially. Rather, they are organized by topic, and positioned to give visitors a closer look at what makes Fisherman’s Wharf such a unique community.

While we can't reproduce the actual signs on this site, We've collected the text and some of the images from the majority of these historical markers.
